First evening

We were on the metro going in the direction of the city center, but where to get out ... We decided we wanted a relaxed evening and go for a drink and some food somewhere, we had travelled enough that day.

A friend had said that in Christiania, a (semi) independent city in Copenhagen, the beer was very affordable. Being from Belgium, we are very big beer fans, so this sounded very good. I also wanted to see Christiania with my own eyes after hearing many things about it.

When we arrived it was very calm. Not many people were around. We visited a small art gallery first. Then we had a snack. Since it was already dark, we could´t see much of the city. But it was ok, it was like I expected it to be. All the houses were decorated with graffiti and there were small market stands on the street. We then started searching for a bar. We entered the Woodstock cafe. The beer was indeed very affordable here, we paid 51 kr for 3 beers which is a lot better than the 5-6 euros per beer they told me to expect. The bar was ok. Afterwards we went looking for something else to eat.

After dinner we were getting tired so decided to go back to the hotel. The way back was again an adventure. We thought we had found the easiest route between the metro station and our hotel, but after two streets we discovered that our plan was incomplete and incorrect. A bit of searching later we were able to find our hotel. A small drink and talk, and then we went to bed.
